Thank you for replying and yes i do have a habit of writing how i think but my problem is it makes perfect sense to me 🙄🙄 im badly dylexic which really doesnt help things. Also a perfect sentence could look like utter nonesense to me. But now i know where i have probably gone wrong i will retype...

Yes once it happened to me and i ended up throwing it out as a result but others have been absolutly fine when iv used a salt solution and its only happened once too me aswell. I thought it was maybe the fragrance i used and as iv been adding the fragrance after the salt then adding a little...

Hi all im sure most of you will know me already. Iv been making cp soaps for just over 2 years now and have recently dived head first into liquid soap making. As an incredibly kind gesture and trying to help while this terrible virus is still running wild a uk based cosmetic chemist has released...

Could it be the recipe your using thats caused this? Iv only made 2 batches of liquid soap so far from alot of experience but i have used tea tree and lavender essential oils in the first batch and although it did thicken, it wasnt so bad as to go into a gel. Iv been testing scents with my...

Cut two of them a tad early but not keen on them anyways tbh i much prefer the other 2! Hoping to grt one final batch of the soap to donate done today ready to cure and then well my curing shelves will be full for the first time ever lol

Think im missing something whats littles debbies? I kinda missed the bin men i didnt want to put jt out last night because of how cold it was didnt want it sweating and the bin was overflowing so couldnt put it on the bin :rolleyes::rolleyes: so going to put it on the top of the bin and leave...

Im in the uk so i dont, we cant sell without an assessment so i simply cant sell these its just hobby soap and frsgrance and eo blend testing. Oh and best of all its practise swirling too! Its like christmas day when am unmoulding and cutting them. but i do know the fragrance i just cant...

Made these today. Not sure if order is correct but they were, choc orange, spearmint and eucalyptus eo blend, wild berries and cant remember last one

Ok for starters you shouldnt put stuff in the wax like that as it can cause fires if it floats and gets into the wick. Secondly it looks and sounds like you most likely dont have big enough wicks bees wax need larger wicks than most wax does. So say parafin is recommended to use an eco 6 wick...

I know its just used for scent but our laws mean because i didnt add it i cant legally sell it or donate it :rolleyes: and with it being such a big batch i wanted to try get some use out of it I know i just wont bother next time but it was suggested i rebatch it so i can still donate it. it was...

Its very possible that i have done but i might just of completely fudged up too iv carefully taken them out the silicone liner today so im going to put them on the top shelf of my curing shelves and just forget about them dont think i can even cut them yet. So ill probably just put the loafs on...

thank you ill try that tomorrow, iv just realised that i can make about batch without the moulds as they are the loaf silicone liner and wooden box kind so i can just line them with freezer paper as a one off solution

Freezer space is even more scarce than soaping moulds would the fridge help? iv got enough space in there? I just did as someone suggested and added water a little at a time and added enough to be able to break the cut soap up i didnt grate it because it was so fresh it was still to soft to...

You are a hot processer arnt you? iv got a quick question if you are please. I made a batch the other day was cp but i forgot to put the eo oils in it was a bigger batch than i normally do because its to donate so someone suggested rebatching it this is something iv never done before and i think...

I dont normally make that much but bigger batches make it quicker and easier to sort for the donations. Im in the uk so i have to pay for assessed soaps so this was a prewritten on a chemist did so we could help and donate where possible but also allows us to sell aswell. ah well could be worse...

Oh yeah defiantly mistakes happen but iv been doing this for nearly 2 years and this has only happened to me once and that was only 10 bars not 52 so i was far more bothered by it this time than I was last time. my rebatch was just the second mess up just hope it does firm up enough wish id just...

If it makes you feel any better i made a batch on Friday and got everything made up tucked it up to bed and about 2 hours later i was writing up the batch numbers for the oils and then i realised that i hadnt added the eo to the batter. i wouldnt normally care but ill be donating these to our...

Thank you ill have a look :D:D Ill have to make do with annoying her on there instead ;);)

Oh right didnt realise that thought id seen her post fairly recently tbh i did send her a message over 6 months ago though but anyways i was only joking about that bit i guessed she was probably just busy! but i might be wrong that might of been a while ago that she posted iv been in my own...

Iv just been busy with alot of things going on zing. So iv recently got a machine called a brother scan n cut that im making my own packaging for the soaps for when i sell them the machine was given to me for free im still not sure how i managed that but its an awesome little machine. Iv been...
